Your suggestion is exactly how Netlfix stream works on my bluray and web interface. You can add things to your instant queue which is there no matter which device you access from, and you can always search the library and just grab something.
They can’t reverse course on this, the fees they’re paying went from under 700 million to over 2.5 billion, they’re just passing on costs.
I understand that and I use that but I’m not talking about the instant library of mostly old movies and tv shows which is impressive and I like very much. They however need to add the ability to purchase content that will never go away like VUDU. Also they need to do something to get more instant next day content like comcast and other cable companies have. If comcast can get it they should be able to work something out.
Netflix is great for kids but what amazes me is the amount of older content they don’t have. They have very little Christmas stuff but they have tons of gay lesbo stuff. What leads to that kind of strategy? I also wish they’d let me control exactly what is available in my library. Just let me add shows to a block list or even better limit certain devices so that only kids shows can be available? Instead its an all or nothing thing for all my devices.
There are lot of things Netflix could do but as cable companies enhance their offerrings they are going to find themselves in the same kind of place Blockbuster was in if they don’t become more agile. I’m a big supporter of Netflix but they could’ve done all this in a much better way.
